Chapter 240
Even though I was shifting my focus to art, I still hadn’t abandoned my work. Without inspiration, I
couldn’t create good work. So, in order to receive more inspiration, I would drive around and enjoy the
view outside.
Creating art wasn’t likepleting a mission, where I could just sit in front of my canvas and forced
myself to draw. If I did that, the end result would just be terrible. However, I needed to finish my next
piece within a month’s time for the next exhibition, and I still had no idea what to draw. I couldn’t take
my sweet time like before and remained unaplished. I would be undeserving to be Christopher’s
partner otherwise.
Since I was bored, I sent a message to Key to update him about my current situation. He was very
happy with my achievement so far and encouraged me by providing me with a couple of suggestions
for my current piece.
After a while, I typed: It’s been a while since you went online. Did something happen?
It took a long time before Key replied, ”I went to a rather remote area. There was no inte ess nor
a phone line, and I had to work hard every day to earn money. I have only returned recently.”
If Key is working in such an awful ce, his family is probably not that well off. I grinned and
asked, ”You know, Avenport is a pretty good ce. Even ordinary people like us can find a living there.”
Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
Key sent a couple of stickers depicting a doll grinning maliciously, much like how Christopher often
smiled at me. Key then replied, ”If you ever find a suitable man, then just marry him. Don’t be a
spinster. If he asks your hand in marriage, don’t reject it.”
A spinster? I wished but I am a divorcee.
I pouted and typed, ”I’m not a spinster. If you say something like that to a girl, you’re doomed to live a
lonely life until the day you die. Understand?”
Key sent me an emoji of a despised look. ”You should go back to drawing now. Don’t bezy, okay? I’m
still waiting for you to be super famous so I could show off to everyone that you’re my friend. If your art
failed to make it into every exhibition in the country, then please don’t tell anyone that we are
acquainted.”
I held my chin as I wondered. Even if I said I know Key, who would who he is? I don’t even know if he’s
a man or woman, or if he’s tall or short. I have never even seen his face before. The only thing I could
tell from our conversations is that he’s kind of an airhead.
After going through two more drafts, I put down my brush because it just didn’t feel right. Christopher
saw how conflicted I was, so he approached me and put me on hisp before giving me a ticket. “If you
don’t know what to draw, how about we get some time off and help you get some inspiration?”
“How can we find inspiration?” I looked at the ticket and noticed it was for a cruise. “Sabrina told me
before that she had a ticket for a 10-day cruise. Is this from her?”
Christopher sneered, “I don’t need to take a ticket from her or anyone if I want to go on a cruise. This is
a ticket for an S-ss package. Once we go on a trip out on the sea, I can guarantee you that
inspiration will flow into your mind like a river.”
“But this is a 10-day cruise. Will we make it in time?” I considered.
“Then, just bring your art supplies with you, idiot. You can’t say no to this. You forgot to prepare my
present after all, so consider this reimbursement.” He pulled me onto the bed and hugged me tightly.
I didn’t like his muscr chest, so I moved down a little more andy my head on his soft belly. I then
poked his waist and grumbled, “Don’t get too overzealous, Christopher. It’s only your birthday that I
forgot. You’ve been reminding me of that fact every day for the past month now. If you do it again, I’m
just going to ignore you.”
I was a little pissy about how he still wanted to take advantage of me even after I have already made
up for my little blunder.
Christopher suddenly pulled out a small red box from his pocket and opened it up to reveal a ring
inside. He lifted it toward me and proposed, “Eve, will you marry me?”
